Movie description:
Uneven but entertaining drama has teen Arthur being accused of being the worst kid in town. Trying to help a friend’s grandmother, he breaks into a store to steal some medicine but is caught. In court the judge is about to send him to a juvenile jail but the store owner (Spencer Tracy) and his wife (Doris Kenyon) end up taking the kid home. The store owner is against it but the wife believes a good home can change a bad kid. This is a fast paced and entertaining little film even though the subject matter brings up some rather false notes as well as being too heavy at times. Conlon never had much of a career, which is somewhat a surprise since his performance is better than many other child stars of his time. The director’s son plays Arthur’s best friend Nutty and does a nice job as well.
